TFL!
for a wedding anniversary of friends, an embossed handmade paper, mixed media - playing with the depth of surface
Close-up
These cupcakes were donated to a charity event for tonight in Gosport UK.
They will be put into a raffle. All monies will be going to Gosport local "Harbour Cancer Support Centre" & "MacMillan".
These voluptuous beauties are light Vanilla sponge with a more than generous helping of buttercream all covered with an embossed circle of fondant and topped with a single large bloom.
I think I'm getting the hang of this. I'm not looking to set a certain mood, but that's my view. I get the feeling I know how people will see this image, and that's cool.
These arrived today and i have to say made me happier than 'a pig in xoxo'!!!
Love them, thankyou so much to all my flickr friends who gave me advice on embossing tools, sooo pleased with them.
I'm making a Japanese folded patchwork bag for a friend so this is the card to go with it. I wanted to keep the front of the card simple so the focal point would be the patchwork design. I heat embossed the black cardstock with the Design Block Flourish (I love that stamp) using clear embossing powder. The black paper on the patchwork is a recycled envelope. Some of the patterned papers are recycled gift wrap and some are tiny scraps left over from other cards. The faux stitching is done with a silver gel pen and black marker. It's a grey, showery day here in Ireland so I'm afraid that the photo is not great.

Thanks for looking!
I found this fabulous velvet skirt online, and I just love it 💗
Gives me the chance to showcase my legs. I'm so self obsessed! lol xx
Iron-clad feather-feet pounding the dust
An October's day, towards evening
Sweat embossed veins standing proud to the plough
Salt on a deep chest seasoning
Last of the line at an honest day's toil
Turning the deep sod under
Flint at the fetlock, chasing the bone
Flies at the nostrils plunder.
The Suffolk, the Clydesdale, the Percheron vie
with the Shire on his feathers floating
Hauling soft timber into the dusk
to bed on a warm straw coating.
Heavy Horses, move the land under me
Behind the plough gliding --- slipping and sliding free
Now you're down to the few
And there's no work to do
The tractor's on its way.
"Jethro Tull"
One of my all time favourite songs and a fitting tribute, to these fine animals, this is Prince and Beauty a pair of competition winning Shires seen doing ploughing demonstrations at the NVTEC Notts Working Weekend. Personally I could have watced these all day.
My second card for Cat's scramble. I used distress markers with the spritzer and a circle mask+stencil. The flower stamped in black and clear embossed to define it a bit more. A few gems around the sentiment ("thinking of you") finish this card.
A card using my new SSS embossing folder "Faceted Snowflakes" and some SSS snowflake dies. Added to the current challenge. Blogged here
I went a bit mad and made a ton of these while playing about with different colours of embossing powder.
The year 2017 was the 500th anniversary of German theologian Martin Luther's Reformation. One of the travel guidebooks is titled "Motherland of the Reformation - On the Trail of a World Event", which has this special embossed cover as well as a bound ribbon bookmark.
I've been wanting to make and post these photos for a long time.
As far back as over one year ago, I'd wanted to visit Hamburg and Saxony (Sachsen), and so I went on-line to look for tourism information. I came across the web site www.sachsen-tourismus.de/en/ and much to my delight, they still print and mail paper promotional materials. The order menu is pretty long, and I thought they would be just some booklets and leaflets, so I ordered a bunch. A few days later, a big heavy parcel arrived from Germany via DHL (thy sent by courier!) with magazine-size books printed on glossy paper!
Well-done Tourism Saxony. I'm more than impressed. I'm sold!
